Casagrotto is the wood fired pizza parlor underneath the Casablanca bar. Accessible from stairs on the inside or exterior right of the building. Tucked away, great SoCal playlist, and people who have a true talent for making excellent pizza. It’s small so get there early by 5:00 for a spot, or just wing it! Another good late night food option.

Dine on their deck or even carry out! Let me tell you, this is good Italian no doubt. Their salads, minestrone, chicken spedini, and cavatelli con broccoli…you can’t go wrong with. Be sure to call in orders to the Horseshoe Bend location.

Two locations. One is nearly next door to the condo. Funky guacamole for those who like the chunky kind! Fresh authentic Mexican food, great salsa, friendly service. Dine in or carry out. Very limited lake view to only a couple booths, but the atmosphere is really great.
